Ketzaleh and Ariel Don't Give Up on Joint Effort

Chairman Ya'akov Katz and Member of Knesset Uri Ariel of the Ichud Le'umi (National Union) party sent a letter to their supporters, Monday, in which they said they will meet again with Knesset Member Michael Ben-Ari, his aide and fellow Knesset candidate Baruch Marzel and Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu as soon as Rabbi Eliyahu returns from abroad, in an effort to bridge gaps and preserve party unity, as well as the party's attempt to run a joint list with Habayit Hayehudi (Jewish Home-New National Religious Party). Responding to claims by Doctor Ben-Ari and Member of Knesset Aryeh Eldad - who have announced plans to run on Eldad's Hatikva ticket, they said that, despite certain voices in Habayit Hayehudi, they never agreed to disqualify Ben-Ari.
